Divadlo na cucky (Theatre in Shreds) is a professional independent theatre in the centre of Olomouc, with a contemporary dramaturgy focused on civic engagement and current social issues. Since 2013, it has operated a permanent stage in Olomouc—first at Wurmova Street and, since 2017, at Dolní Square, where it has been based based today. The theatre’s distinctive artistic output tends towards experimentation and the search for new means of communication, and reflects current societal themes such as nationalism, social polarization, the influence of social media, feminism, national identity, the stereotyping of historical figures, and eco-anxiety. In addition to its repertory work and other activities, Divadlo na cucky also organises the summer contemporary circus festival Cirkuzkus.
